Why science can’t find cure for common cold

Most adults get two to three colds a year. The symptoms may last anywhere from two days to two weeks. Common colds are blamed for about 25 million sick days a year. Dr. Tara Narula reports on the challenges of finding a cure.

Just sitting here... with a cold.... having my brain telling me to watch youtube videos about it...

Why is there no cure for the common cold? Well you answered the question when you showed the stat that consumers spent $7 billion on cold medicine in 2014

*You can't find a cure if you are not looking for one!*

If we can't find a vaccine for common cold, then how are we hoping for coronavirus vaccine🤔

So basically what I got from this is that it is a lot of work for no financial reward to the medical community. It's not that they can't, it's that they won't.

At least we have an immune system capable of fighting cold virus and flu, the late discovered tribe people  have minimal or no immunity to the modern cold virus and actually do die from cold and flu, imagine that horrible run down felling getting worse and worse to the point it kills you.

"You can't die from it... "😂

Hey who's here in 2020?? What?? NOBODY??? 12-15-20 timestamp!

They all say to just be sick for a while. It will go away on its own. Well that's not good enough for me. I want this problem solved. They should also eliminate rat lung worm. They don't seem to be doing anything about it

[Yabuturtle]

What do you think you have an immune system for? It's for killing germs. But it needs practice. It needs germs to practice on. As said by George Carlin.

Who else is watching after coronavirus/covid 19

[KandC]

Anyone else rewatching this in 2020 and cringing by how much Fauci flip-flops? 🤮

[ForensicsOnTheScene]

I’ve spent about $200 on treatment for this cold and we are going on day 9 of it. This includes the $50 copay for the ER because the hacking made it difficult to breathe. Shout out to Vick’s... it has helped most. I blame the 5 hour plane ride I took two days before the cold showed up.

Why develope a cure when you have an 8 billion a year market hiding the problems

[balkansavage]

Iz always shocks me how the progress and innovation in the medical fields is so slow. 😡 The last big breakthrough was the discovery of penicilin 100 years ago! 😳
Meantime, The computer/network/mobile technology develops literally 1000x faster. I guess because there is more money in it. 🤑

[BubbleGumMusicCCU]

I'm watching this, deep within the Corona Virus Pandemic, sitting on my bed with flu.

[archerfischer]

Who else is watching this in 2022 knowing that the whole credibility of this video is ruined because of Dr. Fauci😂
Maybe Fauci should have said that COVID 19 is actually the cure for the common cold xD

[kylecrossley]

Yo so your telling me corona virus was around 5 years ago

[jamaalcurry]

The list says coronavirus from 4 years ago
